Understanding Einstein

Einstein was really just a kooky character, who didn't really do very
much at all. He may have however been an activist who got into the
governments top-secret programs during WWII. I think his goal was to
shut down the governments nuclear bomb program, but they wound up
designating him the worlds smartest genius & giving him credit for the
bomb. But what was he really on to?

He is on to the fact that time is a line, or maybe a ray. He doesn't
mean time exactly, like a clock, because that doesn't really explain
what time is. He is talking about our entire experience, everything.
The world is just fate, and destiny, and doesn't have any real
experience to it other than continuation. That's what Zen Buddhism
seems to be about, so Einstein is kind of like east meets west.

So why don't we perceive time? The answer is because it is external
to our experience. There is also the internal experience, where we
percieve space, mass, and all the other forces in physics, like light
& sound. In reality though these internal experiences are all non-
reality. Every persons experience of reality is unique. Reading this
you are probably actually reading something completely different than
what I'm writing, in many different ways.

What's to understand about an arrogant idiot?

light to travel from A to B equals the "time" it requires

Good point, and an apt self-description.

Thee is nothing that is anything remotely considered as originally
that came out of Einstein. He was not an original thinker. So,
labeling him as a crackpot is very much inappropriate.

I snipped because I didn't see the point of quoting statements I have
no problem with. However, I did leave the comment which was ridiculous
and about which I commented - namely this:

:> (couldn't even pass the SATs).
:
: Was there a SAT in Germany in 1895?

A Student Assessment Test was what he took, and it was in Zurich
which is in Switzerland.

Rabbi Albert Einstein in 1895 failed an examination that would
have allowed him to study for a diploma as an electrical engineer
